CAR-AXLE BOX.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 254,171, dated February 28, 1 882.
' Application filed August 31,1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Beitknown that we, JAMES SOPER and J ONA- THAN SLAnEpitizensoftheUnitedStates,residin g at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have j ointly invented certain new and useful Improvements in devices-for reducing or diminishing friction in journals or axles for bearin gs or wheels; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled'in the art to which it appertaius to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Our invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in a device adapted to be ap- Figure 1 represents a side elevation of the truck of a car or other vehicle, with the caps for the wheel orjournal and bearing. This journal or axle should be provided with holes or slots 0, to admit of the passage of oil or other suitable lubricant material from the top to the bottom, or vice versa, of the journal-or axle of wheel or hearing D. This second journal or axle O is made in two sections, if desired, and provided with end annular ribs, a a, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, or a central annular rib, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6, or merely a tube with an endann ular rib for holding it in place, as shown in Fig. 8 said rib or ribs engaging with the bearing d, which prevents any longitudinal movement of the journal. This device is intended for the journal of any wheel or hearing,
and can be duplicated one or more times, as shown in Fig. 9. This second journal or axle 0, being loose, (or what might be termed a fioatingjournal or axle,) greatly relieves, diminishes, or divides the friction on the main axle A, as it serves as a revolving beari ng turning partially with themain axle orjournal.
Having thus fully described our invention,
what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination, with the main axle orjournal ofa wheel for a car or other vehicle, of a looseor floating journal and bearing 0, having lubricant opening 0, and annular rib or ribs a, the cap D, and bearing d, substantially as and for the purpose herein shown and described.
In testimony whereof we affix our'signatures in presence of" two witnesses.
